Those who have come in contact with Xarah and have had the pleasure of seeing her perform know that they have been in the presence of a true artist. Her voice - sweet and assertive - explores each piece of the melody while her hands delicately caress the piano keys. Xarah can make a song come alive just after the first note is sung. Born in the Northeastern part of the Dominican Republic, Xarah began her musical studies at the tender age of four (4), learning the insides and outs of classical piano. At eleven years of age, Xarah wrote her first song. She went on to complete her studies at the ICA de Santiago where she obtained her Bachelor's Degree in Arts focusing on Classical Piano. During this time, Xarah participated in any an every talent show she could get herself into and began creating a name for her as a real star. She was invited to join the group Carengue, with whom she traveled the entire Island performing first as back up vocals and eventually taking center stage. After a few years with Carengue, Xarah decided that it was time to move forward and packed her bags en route to Miami. With $300 in her pocket and a lot of faith, Xarah found a job at a music store, always looking for a way to be close to her passion. In a few months, she was moving within the local indie movement and started working a number of local musicians. One of the demos recorded ended up on the hands of Mark Eman, a music executive who was looking for a fresh new voice to join his record label: Respek Records. Soon after, she was signed and recording the first few songs of her debut album. Currently, she is promoting the first single "Mentiroso", co-written between Xarah and Mark Eman. The first album "Xarah" is a collection of pop-rock songs with tropical influences. Songs like "Volver a Ti" (Coming back to you), and "Quiero Saber" (I want to Know) flow with pop energy and power that only Xarah can exude. The dance rhythms and the electronic arrangements, evident in "Tu No Sabes la Verdad" (You don't know the truth), create an irresistible sound. "Porque No Estás Aqui" (Why aren't you here?) and "Nada Mejor Que Tu" (Nothing better than you) are two powerful, yet tender ballads full of emotion and true feelings. At the center of each song is Xarah's unique voice. It's a sound that makes the listener fall in love and makes him or her a prisoner of the power of each song. Xarah brings with her youthfulness and power rarely seen in today's pop stars. Her star power will surely shine and transcend frontiers.
